E3 2010!

With the Natal event this evening, E3 is already upon us. I'm sure we're all excited to find out more about the games we're interested in, so I figured I'd make a list of which games I'm most looking forward to and why: Fallout: New Vegas (360/PS3/PC): I still need to get around to fixing my computer and finishing the DLC for Fallout 3 , but that doesn't stop me from being interested in New Veg...

With the Natal event this evening, E3 is already upon us.  I'm sure we're all excited to find out more about the games we're interested in, so I figured I'd make a list of which games I'm most looking forward to and why:

  • Fallout: New Vegas (360/PS3/PC):  I still need to get around to fixing my computer and finishing the DLC for Fallout 3, but that doesn't stop me from being interested in New Vegas.  I'm a bit worried however, that it's being developed by the same people as the not-so-loved Alpha Protocol.
  • Marvel vs. Capcom 3 (360/PS3):  Why am I looking forward to this game?  Cause IT'S MAHVEL BAYBEE!!  I'm a fan of fighting games, whether they're technical or ridiculous.
  • Fable III (360/PC):  Molyneux always gets me hook, line and sinker.  When I got around to playing Fable II last year, it was once of my favorite games in a long, long time.  Molyneux delivered on most of his promises last time around, and I'm excited to see what's next.  I remain skeptical of the inclusion of motion control ( Natal) support in Fable III.
  • SOCOM 4 (PS3):  One of my favorite PS2 franchises.  I was disappointed in Confrontation, but it was made by different people.  Again, not sold on the motion control ( Move) support.
  • Red Faction Armageddon (360/PS3/PC):  I barely know anything about this game so far, but I'm excited to see how they increase the level of destruction from Guerrilla.  I'm a little worried that a lot of the game (80%) will take place underground, since it will make for a drastically different game than the previous one and return to its roots of the first Red Faction.
  • Monday Night Combat (XBLA):  Sadly, the only new IP on my list.  I got to play a round of this at PAX East in March and it was pretty fun.  I'm mostly looking forward to a release date than any other info.  I'm pretty sure this will be included as part of the "Summer of Arcade."

Other notable mentions:
 
I'm also looking forward to the unveiling of the 3DS since it's reportedly more powerful than the Wii.  Hopefully we'll also see the announcement of PS2 games on PSN and more Dreamcast games on XBL and PSN including ChuChu Rocket!, Jet Grind Radio and Skies of Arcadia?
